Suffering from really bad thrush (embarrassing I know) I have a doctors appointment tomorrow but does anyone know anything that can help ease the irritation of the itching until the morning as it’s keeping me awake at night
@becca.hill that's exactly what I was like I would find myself going to the toilet in the middle of the night just to wash myself with cold water. hopefully the doctor will give you a prescription, when i had the pessary I noticed a difference the day after so I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. x
@courtney0503, it’s awful. Itching starts to relieve the pain but you don’t actually realise how much damage your causing yourself as Iv got too the point I’m bleeding a little. Yeah Iv tried cold water it lasts for a few hours but I’ll wake up a while later dying to scratch x
I had it quite bad too to the point I scratched myself so hard in my sleep that I made myself bleed and then woke up panicking at the blood! but one thing that weirdly helped was a really cold bottle of water between my legs. and wash yourself with plain cold water before you go to bed that seemed to ease it for a little while sometimes too. x
